Psalm 124 - Contemporary English Version Interconfessional Edition

Thanking the Lord for Victory

(A song by David for worship.)

¹ The Lord was on our side! Let everyone in Israel say:

² “The Lord was on our side! Otherwise, the enemy attack

³ would have killed us all, because it was furious.

⁴ We would have been swept away in a violent flood

⁵ of high and roaring waves.”

⁶ Let's praise the Lord! He protected us from enemies who were like wild animals,

⁷ and we escaped like birds from a hunter's torn net.

⁸ The Lord made heaven and earth, and he is the one who sends us help.
